CHICAGO, IL — A new preventive and remedial system that is applied to hard surfaces in a building, such as ductwork, walls, ceilings, and floors, or that can be incorporated as a part of these products during the manufacturing process, is said to have the ability to kill infectious agents and fungi on contact and inhibit their spread, while being safe for building occupants, according to an announcement from Alistagen Corporation and the Chelsea Group, Ltd.
"The potential benefits of Caliwel with Bi-Neutralizing Agent (BNA) from Alistagen Corporation are enormous in terms of saving lives and millions of dollars in property damage and health care costs. Caliwel also kills fungi and prevents mold growth at its source, including 'toxic' mold that has been the focus of recent media coverage and numerous lawsuits," said George Benda, chairman and ceo of the Chelsea Group.
